WAI 6946N Starter Drive 12V

The WAI 6946N is a new 12-volt starter drive designed to restore proper starter motor engagement and reliable engine cranking. The starter drive — also known as a Bendix drive or starter pinion — is the mechanism responsible for engaging the starter motor's pinion gear with the engine flywheel ring gear during cranking, then automatically disengaging once the engine fires.

Key Features:

• New construction — not remanufactured, providing full service life from day one
• 12-volt application for compatibility with standard automotive and light-duty vehicle electrical systems
• Precision-engineered engagement and overrunning clutch mechanism for smooth, reliable operation
• Built to OEM specifications for proper fit and function
• Ideal replacement for worn, slipping, or damaged starter drives causing no-start or grinding conditions
